Official: Andy Lee vs Billy Joe Saunders RBR Thread

[1hourRun]

Undercard : Smith vs. Kelley

[Eastcoast]

Kelly looks like an accountant while Smith needs some Just-for-Men. Surprised they let those two up there alone like that, could've turned bad.

[D-MiZe]

Williams does 'em both.

[mlac]

lol who the hell is that hipster? he looks terrified.

[Fetta]

This is the fight im looking forward to from this weekend. Late Sat night or Sunday morning.

[Eff Pandas]

Looking forward to this one as I enjoy both guys. I like BJS here, but clearly Lee gots the power to stop virtually anyone.

Problem for Lee is he usually seems just sorta there in the ring & if he KO's a guy he KO's him & if he doesn't he doesn't or if he wins he wins & if he doesn't he doesn't. He's just sort of professionally lackadaisical or unfocused for lack of a better term. Lee's KO's seem almost on accident at times.

BJS on the other hand seems deliberate, goal oriented & comes in with a strategy to win. He then actively puts forth that strategy to give himself the often talked about early lead to reduce his margin of error in losing the fight later on if it gets closer with point deductions or KD's or whatever.

BJS will surely come with a winning plan, the only question I have is does he have the winning chin? My pick: BJS by decision. As long as BJS's chin holds up, he wins the fight imo. A KO or couple KD's is the only way Lee wins.

Lee will look for highest bidder if he beats Saunders

“I have to win on Sunday night [England time], but Golovkin is a great champion,” Lee said. “If I come through, I’ll fight Jacobs, Golovkin or Alvarez.

“Whatever’s the easiest fight to make, whatever is the best money fight, the best situation. My attitude is the best fight the best. I’ve fought in America many times, and I’m prepared that if I win, I’ll go back to America.”

That means if Canelo wants it, he should be able to get it. Golovkin might have to take short money and give Lee the fight in the UK to match what Haymon will throw at him.

[juandabomb]

Lee has 3 options, out of the three Canelo fight can bring him the most moolah. But he has to win on Saturday which he should unless he underestimates saunders

[boliodogs]

I have never seen Saunders fight so I am not sure who wins. I voted Lee wins by KO if for no other reason than I like him. He seems like a guy who never gives up. His right hook is a lightning bolt powerful punch.
